About this resource
Head Start services aim to cultivate healthy families and communities by promoting the social and cognitive growth of children within a classroom environment, while also offering educational, health, nutritional, social, and additional services to both children and their families. Emphasis is placed on parental involvement. Services available for parents include goal-setting assistance, parenting classes, and networking opportunities. Head Start locations can be found in Baker City, Elgin, La Grande, and Union. Additionally, Early Head Start offers classroom and home visiting services for families with children aged 0-3 years.

Who can use this

Children in foster care, homeless children, and those from families receiving public assistance (such as TANF, SNAP, or SSI) qualify regardless of income. Families with higher incomes may also qualify based on specific needs, although priority is given to those with greater needs.
